Ray's Playlist

This song, Half-Crazy, could be described as the tenacious offspring of the North African desert music of Mali/Morocco and the sweat and electricity of the Chicago and Mississippi Delta blues. That music is like a stem-cell, really open to going in many directions. On this track, we wired the harp through a dirty little amplifier. I played my early 40's Oahu lap-steel. Andrew uses a loping high-hat feel, and the electric bass pushes the whole thing. The lyrics got a nudge from our friend Nathan Moore--we're all half-crazy, half clear as a bell.

Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On) - Robert Plant & Alison Krauss

Had a jam with the talented musicians staying next door. They came over and we rocked out in the cottage for the third time in summer 2025. Not the best audio fidelity because it mostly just came off an overdriven PA, but really fun energy and great players. This is Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive".

ELVIS COSTELLO - Watching The Detectives (1978)

The lead single for DeWolff downunder explodes with a 'red-neckish slide' in this 'pelvis crusher' of a track. Just a taste of things to come from this band whose mature authentic sound wrapped in superb melodies and electric live performances belies their youthful age.
